I know it is coming up fast but any ideas on a first baby's birthday? I like to keep in nice and simple myself but who knows.

I didn't really do anything special for either of my kids first birthday. I just stripped them down to their diapers and put the cake in front of them. I have photos of both of them with cake all over and a big smile.

Nope we don't do showers of any kind except the wet sort in the bathroom or the rain ;)

Joe all we did was have a special day together take him to the zoo or something you wouldn't normally do, this year though its tea partys all round with friends the day after her birthday and another with family on the Sunday after her actual birthday will be spent with just us and hopefully a visit to the sea life centre.

Thanks CBW, Well soon we are going and I think they are going to do something for him when we get there. It will be completely new and different for him. Tomorrow prouds family were invited to come but no one is letting us know who is coming or not. Just as well. I would rather them stay away. Lol

Em, That is what I was thinking. Birthday cake and lots of pictures and a few new toys.

We didn't bother with pressents last year everyone else bought so much it was silly and it is just to dam close to christmas, Just enjoy the day savour the smiles and the giggles and the fun its never going to happen again.

So true, hopefully he is not a cranky tomorrow. Lol Toddlers are so unpredicatable. I am getting that. Yes, going to just have fun. Well have to go to the doctors.

Save your money JH for when they ask you for a party at Chuck E Cheese or the Jumping Monkey. At one, they don't even know it is their birthday!

Hello all. Well rested. Starting to calm down a bit now. I'm really liking the new job, the time just flies by, well except for last night, but that was just because I was a zombie :D. Had to take connor to the eye doctor today, good news is his vision has improved (yay) bad news is that his nerve leading from the brain to the eye is pushing into the eye, which can be a result of his near sightedness or the result of a mass in his brain... we have to have a MRI now in 6 weeks... im very nervous, even if the doctor is pretty positive it's the nearsightendness. Hope you all have wonderful weekends!

Awe.. CBW that is so cute! Is dink a 'maine coon'?

I just noticed the cat in the upper right.. my daughter's cat Simba looked exactly like that. He died on the 21st and we buried him in the backyard. Rudi (my BF) engraved a metal sign and attached it to the borderstone at Simba's head. Simba weighed 13 Kilos (approx 20 lbs I think) We were able to stay with him the whole time until he passed on. On that day, I really enveyed him.. no more pain, at peace.
